MCT presents "The Secret Garden"

Clear Float

This pane clears float!

The Secret Garden, an original Missoula Children’s Theatre rendition, is a joyful retelling of a story of hope and celebration and all good things in life by Platteville-area children on Friday, July 11 starting at 7:30 p.m., with another showing Saturday, July 12 at 11 a.m. The story begins with Mistress Mary Quite Contrary embarking on a journey from India to her uncle’s home in England. Along the way she makes friends with the hilarious Canadian Geese and the colorful giant bugs that rock! In time she learns to appreciate everything around her, including the Moor animals and the helpful fireflies. Add to that a good healthy dose of caring, and what happens? Colin, Martha and Archibald - well the whole household - begin to enjoy the return of health and happiness in a garden carefully tended…until it blossoms once more.

Tickets are $6 adults, $5 current UW-Platteville students, $4 under 18 and are available from the University Box Office, 608.342.1298 or at tickets.uwplatt.edu
